Good morning. It's already time to go to work, but I wanted to start this blog rolling, even though it isn't fully set up yet.There are many great books and sites on adoption, that another blog seemed irrelevant. Instead it's like a person saying, 'I have a dumb question to ask'. There are no dumb questions. What's dumb is NOT to question. It is true that we all face Life in different ways. Our perceptions are unique to each of us. Often, we cannot comprehend how a person does what he or she does, and make excuses and judgments, often born of ignorance.
A blog is simply another person's viewpoint. If the words help bring calm to even one troubled mind, then it has fulfilled it's purpose. My viewpoint may be nothing like yours. That's okay too. Life would be boring if we all felt the same way and saw everything in black or white. it's the shades of gray which ultimately define us.
As both an adoptee AND a birth mother, it's time to share my story - from my personal perceptions. I don't ask for praise or condemnation. This blog will not be in any specific order either - that's the beauty of my own blog. I can be as higgledy piggledy as I choose. My goal is to help others realize that they are truly, not alone.
My life has had extreme highs and extreme lows. It has traveled across the oceans to different countries and different lifestyles. It's my life, as I see it. It's time to write about it, even though it will hurt at times - hurt me that is, in the remembering. Maybe, I too, will finally write myself whole again.
For now, it's time to go to work
